My heart skipped a beat, and my bad premonition became even stronger.
Passing through the waterfall, the strong smell of blood floated in the wind.
The waterfall continued to wash down, forming a natural wall of water, trapping the smell of blood in this narrow valley.
The houses of the Feng people are built on the cliff like a bird's nest. There is no large area of flat land here.
After smelling the smell of blood, I looked around hurriedly. I didn't see a single body, but I saw traces of blood and knife marks remaining on the mountain wall. The Chodo Bird's Nest had been destroyed.
All these traces tell that a tragic battle took place here!
Or...are you late?
"Yun Ling!" I shouted.
The voice echoed in the valley, but no one responded.
Yuchen said, "Separately search.
"
I nodded.
Qing Qian said something and she helped.
The three of us went into different bird's nests to look for people.
Entering the small courtyard of the Bird's Nest, I found that the situation inside the Bird's Nest was even more tragic than it looked from the outside.
There was blood everywhere, on the floor, walls, and overturned furniture.
It can be seen that they were suddenly attacked or assassinated.
Because if it was a frontal attack and confrontation, there wouldn't be so much blood in their homes.
I searched four or five houses in succession, and there were signs of fighting in each house, but I couldn't find even a single body.
"It's so strange," Qing Qian said to me after searching several houses, "Auntie, there's no one there. With so much blood shed, it can't be that no one is dead, right? Where are their bodies?"
No one died?
This sentence reminded me, and I suddenly remembered a place.
"Yuchen, I know where Yun Ling is!"
As I spoke, I turned around and flew to the opposite mountain, followed my memory through the waterfall, and found the cave.
As expected, there were blood stains on the cave floor.
The blood on the ground extended into the cave.
The cave is very large, and the fresh fruits and melons usually placed on the ground on both sides are now somewhat rotten.
Follow the blood trail and walk in, and you will see a large cauldron. The cauldron is filled with rare treasures, gold, diamonds, gems, etc., and it is almost overflowing.
Qing Qian followed me in. When she saw so many gems, she exclaimed in a low voice, "Auntie, is this cave the Feng Clan's vault?"
Yuchen glanced around, "This is the place where the Phoenix Clan achieved nirvana.
"
"right.
"I nodded and continued walking inside.
"The Nirvana of the Phoenix Clan?" Qing Qian looked at everything curiously and said in surprise, "Then shouldn't this be the Holy Land of the Phoenix Clan? My father's private treasury is his Holy Land, and he is so precious that he wishes he could clean eight of them in one day.
all over.
Isn’t anyone cleaning the Feng Clan’s holy land? It smells so bad here!”
Qing Qian and Yu Chen's noses were both sharper than mine. They smelled the stench as soon as they entered the cave, but I only smelled the stench Qing Qian mentioned after walking some distance into the cave.
That's the smell of rotting meat. The deeper you go in, the stronger the smell becomes and the higher the surrounding temperature becomes.
After walking for about four or five minutes, a huge cave appeared in front of us.
The cave only has a small section of stone path near the stone wall.
The road is very narrow and can only accommodate one person walking along it.
Except for the stone road at the edge, the entire cave is a huge magma lake.
The red magma was bubbling, and the steaming heat was rising.
Standing here, I feel like my eyebrows are on fire, and there are sparks floating in the air.
The stone road at the edge was filled with corpses. There were so many corpses that they were stacked in two layers.
These corpses are all in the form of phoenixes. The beautiful phoenix feathers have completely lost their color and are overlapped together lifelessly.
At this time, a large milky white stone floated in the center of the magma lake.
There is a golden alchemy furnace that is as tall as a person on the stone.
Yun Ling knelt in front of the alchemy furnace, holding a woman in his arms.
He was covered in blood, as if he had been fished out of bloody water, and his white clothes had been dyed red by the blood.
With his back to us, he was cutting his own wrist with a dagger and feeding the blood to the woman in his arms.
After feeding the blood, he raised his head and looked at the alchemy furnace. He didn't know what he was looking at. After waiting for a while, he said to himself, "It still doesn't work. There must be too little blood.
"
He picked up the dagger again.
I couldn't stand it anymore, so I rushed over and grabbed his hand holding the dagger, "Yun Ling, she..."
I wanted to say that the woman in his arms was dead, but when I saw her face clearly, I was stunned for a moment.
It's Jiang Li!
Jiang Li has been dead for who knows how long. His skin is deathly gray and there are corpse spots on his face.
And her body has turned into a pile of bones.
"Lin Xi, you are here.
"Yun Ling turned to look at me. His eyes were dark but lackluster, and his gaze towards me was not even focused.
The whole person was in a trance.
His complexion was not much better than Jiang Li's. He was as pale as paper. If he hadn't been talking to me, I would have suspected that he was also a corpse.
His voice was hoarse, "Lin Xi, the boss's wife is dead. She is a ghost and her soul is gone."
Something happened to Jiang Li too, but don't worry, I will save her.
"
Tears welled up in my eyes instantly.
I never expected that the two people who were bickering about fair competition when we met not long ago would disappear so quickly! That meeting in the hotel turned out to be our last time together!
"Don't be sad, I can save her..."
"Yun Ling," I looked at him and said with difficulty, "she is dead.
You look down and see that her body has turned into bones, and your blood only kept her head from turning into bones.
Yun Ling, she is hopeless.
"
"She does, Lin Xi, you have to believe me, I can..."
"How do you save me?" Yuchen came over and interrupted Yun Ling.
Yun Ling said anxiously, "I can save her. As long as she drinks my blood, she can reach nirvana like the rest of the Feng clan.
"
"Since everyone else in the Phoenix Clan can achieve Nirvana, why didn't you save your fellow Clan first?!"
Yuchen's words were like a knife, piercing into Yun Ling's heart.
Yun Ling froze as if she had been struck by lightning.
His face became even whiter, so white that it was transparent, as if he would disappear at any time.
But his eyes turned red, so red that they could bleed.
Qiao Jiu's silence.
Yun Ling's eyes turned and looked at me. His eyes were clear again, as if he had woken up from the delusion that he could resurrect everyone.
"I'm all right.
"
Yun Ling took her hand away from mine, put Jiang Li down again, and gently touched Jiang Li's face with her hand, "In the next life, fall in love with someone worthy of your liking.
"
After saying that, he stood up, moved his stiff body, then turned around quickly and pounced on Yuchen.
"You're right, only one of us can live!"
Yuchen turned sideways to avoid Yun Ling's attack. The moment Yuchen's body missed, Yun Ling changed his offensive, stretched out his arms to hug Yuchen's waist, and jumped into the magma with Yuchen.
Yun Ling is a phoenix, his spells are of fire attribute, and he is not afraid of fire.
But Yuchen is different.
Seeing that the two of them were about to fall into the lava, Yuchen summoned his spiritual power and fell into the cave with Yun Ling.
Standing in the cave, Qing Qian was startled. She was afraid of being accidentally hurt, so she hurriedly hid far away.
After the two people fell into the cave, Yun Ling stopped using magic power. He clenched his fists and relied solely on hand-to-hand combat.
"Yu Chen, no, maybe Qiao should call you brother more appropriately! Are you satisfied seeing me being forced to do this?"
